Why I’m on Couchsurfing

I believe in the power that the communities have. Whether it is in a social cause, in a collective funding, or in voluntary activities. I think platforms that support these initiatives are very relevant. So I'm here to be part of this sharing community world: sharing moments and ideas, knowing cultures and collaborating with people who share positive energies.

One Amazing Thing I’ve Done

When I was 20, I was volunteer in the Olympic and Paralympic Games of Rio (2016), most specifically in the Opening and Closing ceremonies. I had 3 months of rehearsals (PS: I can’t dance haha) in the 3rd biggest stadium of South America (Maracanã) and it was my first big cultural experience in which I could know volunteers and professionals from all over the world. Rio was very vibrant during the games, and during the closing ceremony I escorted an athlete from Niger who was the first Nigerien medalist in years.
